EPA working with DOJ, FBI on NGO corruption after eight groups tied to ‘gold bars’ scheme

By Sean Moran | Breitbart Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Administrator Lee Zeldin detailed on The Alex Marlow Show how the Biden administration protected $20 billion in “gold bars” meant for leftist NGOs, many of them with connections to the Biden administration. Zeldin sent shockwaves in mid-February after he had pledged to recover $20 billion in taxpayer funds that had been sent by the Biden administration to climate change projects and other pet projects of Democrat staffers. The EPA Administrator at the time likened it to “throwing gold bars off the Titanic,” saying that it was a “rush job with reduced oversight.” READ THE FULL STORY AT BREITBART

Vance sat down with Fox News’ Sean Hannity on Monday to detail what went down and the U.S.’ conditions for moving forward with Zelenskyy...

Israel says it will only extend Gaza cease-fire deal if hostage deal passed

By Reuters via The New York Post Foreign Minister Gideon Saar said Tuesday Israel was ready to proceed to the second phase of the Gaza cease-fire deal, as long as Hamas was ready to release more of the 59 hostages it is still holding. Fighting in Gaza has been halted since January 19 under a truce arranged with US support and Qatari and Egyptian mediators, and Hamas has exchanged 33 Israeli hostages and five Thais for some 2,000 Palestinian prisoners and detainees. But the initial 42-day truce has expired and Hamas and Israel, which has blocked the entry of aid trucks into Gaza, remain far apart on broader issues including the postwar governance of Gaza and the future of Hamas itself.

Clarence Thomas scolds SCOTUS over ‘refusal to intervene’ on free speech case

By Katelynn Richardson | Daily Caller Justice Clarence Thomas wrote Monday that the Supreme Court should not let “confusion persist” regarding students’ free speech rights on university campuses. The Supreme Court declined Monday to hear a case questioning whether “bias response teams” on university campuses chill students’ free speech rights, though Thomas and Justice Samuel Alito would have taken the case. Over 450 colleges and universities nationwide have “bias response teams” that encourage students to report incidents of bias committed by their peers to school officials, Thomas noted in a dissent.
